Description: On behalf of Hastings County: Hastings County Farm Show and Plowing Match County Tent Over the past few years, Hastings County has hosted a tent at the Hastings County Farm Show and Plowing Match. Traditionally the tent had displays from local, municipal governments, communities and organizations. However, to fit with the Farm Show, last year we decided to partner with Harvest Hastings and focus on local foods and producers in Hastings County. In our 60 X 40 foot tent, we provided space to local farmers and producers to showcase themselves, and the variety of unique local tastes and offerings. We provided space for municipal partners and marketing organizations such as ComfortCountry. This year The Farm Show is August 18th & 19th at Robinson Farm on Blessington Road, Tyendinaga. The hosts are Robert and April Jarrell and family. We are starting to plan for this year and will have space in the tent for at least a dozen producers and/or farm groups (e.g. farmers’ markets). We will provide an 8 foot long table with a white cloth. There is no cost to take part. Please contact Louise Livingstone (louise@tubb.ca) if you are interested in taking part or you have any questions.
